Chapter 275: Entering the Palace
Although she entered the palace with Mrs. Song, Song Yao had her own carriage, so there was no need to share one with Mrs. Song, so as not to be unhappy with each other.
Of course, Song Yao absolutely didn't care about making Mrs. Song unhappy, but she didn't want to block her heart, and it was better to get along with her two sons.
On the way to the palace, Song Yuanbao chattered non-stop, which shows that he is full of expectations for entering the palace.
Song Yinbao just echoed and said a few words, his expression was a little solemn, which made Song Yao inevitably a little worried.
"Yinbao, remember that you promised your mother, don't do anything like an egg hitting a stone until you are absolutely sure." Before arriving at the palace gate, Song Yao reminded in a low voice.
Song Yinbao's body stiffened, and he nodded with a calm face: "Don't worry, my son knows what to do, and he will never be reckless." ”
Song Yao sighed silently, stroked the top of Song Yinbao's head, and said distressedly: "Be good." ”
I know that Song Yinbao has borne too much pain, but now is really not the time.
Not to mention that Song Yao's own power is not enough to deal with the imperial power, even Song Yinbao himself does not have enough evidence.
Once Song Yinbao couldn't hold his breath, the consequences of waiting for them were not something they could afford at all.
What's more, now it's not just their mother and son, but also all the subordinates of Song Ji, and even the entire Song family, Song Yao can't afford to take such a risk.
Song Yao's word is a mother's love for her child, which made Song Yinbao's eyes red, and he was more clear about what he should do.
He can't be so selfish, even for the sake of his relatives under Jiuquan, he has to endure humiliation.
Song Yuanbao, who was originally full of interest, saw that Song Yinbao was like this, and he also restrained his smile, hugged Song Yinbao's shoulder and said: "Brother, don't worry, Yuanbao will definitely help you, but you have to wait for Yuanbao to grow up a little more." ”
Song Yinbao nodded, he didn't really want to pull Song Yuanbao into his grudge, he just didn't want Song Yuanbao to continue to talk about this matter.
"Okay, it's almost time to the palace, make me laugh, don't let people be honest." Song Yao pinched the faces of her two sons, this feeling was really good.
Song Yuanbao squinted his eyes and enjoyed his face, what he liked most was to be close to his mother.
Song Yinbao blushed, even if Song Yao did this more than once, he was still a little unaccustomed to it, and his biological mother in his memory had never been so intimate.
I really want to remind Song Yao that he is ten years old, but every time the words come to his mouth, he swallows them back.
In fact, Song Yinbao also enjoys such intimacy with each other, so it's like a mother and son, isn't it?
After the carriage stopped, Zhuxing got out of the carriage first, helped Song Yao down, and picked up the two little sons to get out of the carriage.
Mrs. Song, who arrived first, saw Song Yao's mother and son standing there, and attracted the attention of countless people, and the hatred in her heart escalated again.
A woman who has children out of wedlock is simply a shame, she shouldn't exist in this world, it's just a slap in the face!
Mrs. Song's cruel gaze fell on the mother and son, but she forgot that Song Yao would have today's situation, which was simply caused by her, and she should be the one who lives in the world without shame.
"The noble lady is still waiting, let's enter the palace." Madame Song spoke gently, as if she was a loving mother, but the smile failed to reach the bottom of her eyes.
"Okay." Song Yao answered, holding a son in one hand.
It was not the first time to enter the palace, and Song Yao had nothing to be curious about the palace.
Although she was a cook last time she entered the palace, she had met Qin Guiren and the queen in the end, so Song Yao was not interested in other places except for a little expectation of Jinluan Palace.
Even though Song Yuanbao was curious, he didn't look at it, this was what Song Yao had explained to him when he went out, and he must always be careful to follow the rules in the palace.
Mrs. Song saw that the mother and son were very indifferent to follow, and the displeasure in her eyes was even stronger, she waited to watch the three of them make a fool of themselves, but one by one they seemed to have entered the palace many times, and they were not interested in anything or afraid of anything.
No matter how angry Mrs. Song was in her heart, she had to pretend to be generous on her face, otherwise her reputation as virtuous would not be saved, which was not what Mrs. Song was happy to see.
Even though Mrs. Song is the lady of the command, the soft sedan chair prepared in the palace is at the second palace gate, so she has to walk for a while.
When she met someone she knew along the way, Mrs. Song would also stop to say hello, and unwillingly introduced Song Yao's mother and son.
Fortunately, the people who came at this time were all going to enter the palace to meet the concubines, so they only said a few words on the road and did not delay much time.
Song Yao's grade was not enough, and the two boys were not qualified to take the soft sedan chair, so they could only follow Mrs. Song's soft sedan chair, which attracted a lot of attention along the way.
I don't know if the sedan chair man has been deliberately arranged, he walks fast when he doesn't meet people, if it weren't for Song Yao and the two little guys exercising every day, and some fists and feet in their bodies, they would definitely be tired and lose their posture.
However, Rao is like this, and the faces of the mother and son are also a little red, but they have a healthier complexion.
Zhuxing squinted his eyes, and put away the stones he picked up at Song Yao's signal, otherwise Mrs. Song would definitely fall very badly.
Song Yao didn't know if the sedan chair man had a detour, and after walking for more than half an hour, he finally came to the bedroom of the noble man he wanted to visit.
The nobleman is not the lord of the first palace, but after all, he has a certain status in the palace, so the place where he lives is not comparable to ordinary people's families, but it is far from Song Yao's Yuqiong Garden.
Song Yuanbao also thought that the palace was the kind of place where gold and jade were inscribed, and he couldn't help but be disappointed after entering the palace, and he didn't have a good place where his wife lives now, but the house was a little higher, and the patterns of carving dragons and phoenixes on it were a little different.
Song Yinbao is a normal heart, after all, he knows more than Song Yuanbao, and he explained to Song Yuanbao quietly along the way.
Mrs. Song took Song Yao's mother and son to pay homage to the noble people, because the Song Yuanbao brothers were over seven years old, so they knelt down through the screen.
"Why did my cousin come? My mother just said that she hadn't seen her cousin for a long time. Wan Guiren got up with a smile and pulled Mrs. Song to sit beside her, with a very intimate attitude.
Among the maternal family, in addition to herself, this cousin is the best to marry, and the Wan nobles have wanted to get closer many times, but Mrs. Song's attitude is lukewarm, but it makes the Wan nobles rest their minds.
Who knew that on the eve of the queen's birthday, she actually received a secret letter, how could Wan Guiren not do it, just hoping to be taken care of by her cousin, and after the princess got married in the future, she could also have a better home.
There is no way, the women in the deep palace either have to be favored by the dragon, or they have to compete with the power of the mother, otherwise it is unknown how long they can live in their old age, let alone spend their old age.
Wan Guiren was able to raise the princess, and that was because the princess couldn't compete for the throne, otherwise she would be just a pile of white bones today.
"Yes, my aunt is so old, and you don't come to visit your aunt much, my aunt is really afraid of ......" Mrs. Zhang's eyes turned red as she spoke, as if she really didn't have a few years to live.
"Aunt said." Mrs. Song frowned and interrupted Mrs. Zhang's words.
In fact, the reason why Mrs. Song didn't come was because she looked down on this cousin, even if the other party was a nobleman, she was still lowly in the eyes of Mrs. Song.
Mrs. Zhang is Mrs. Song's aunt, yes, but she is a concubine, so Mrs. Song is not close to this aunt.
And Master Zhang is the deputy judge of the Guozijian name, but he has received an idle errand, and he has no ability, let alone power.
Otherwise, Wangui gave birth to a princess back then, and the emperor gave the Zhang family this glory, and Lord Zhang would not have done nothing for many years.
A nobleman who has no maternal power, his age is there, even if he was favored when he was young, he is now completely forgotten by the emperor.
If it weren't for the princess's favor, she would be able to see the emperor every year on her birthday, but I'm afraid that this mother and daughter would not be much better than being beaten into the cold palace.
Mrs. Zhang was busy covering her mouth, she just wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Mrs. Song, she didn't expect that today was the queen's birthday, and if she said it, it would be a taboo.
In fact, Mrs. Zhang really didn't get a good education, otherwise she should know that even if it wasn't the queen's birthday, she couldn't say such things in the palace, and if she was used by someone with a heart, she might not have what kind of right and wrong.
Wan Guiren's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but glance at his mother resentfully, but he couldn't say anything in front of the palace people, so he pulled Mrs. Song and said a lot of compliments, for fear that Mrs. Song would respond in her heart.
Wan Guiren is not favored, and the mother family has no officials in power, so there are not many people who come to her, but she is not afraid of losing face.
It's just that the three of them are chatting here, but they forget about Song Yao's mother and son, and no one gets up for a long time.
Song Yao secretly hated in her heart, feeling sorry for her two sons who had knelt for so long, but she also knew that Wan Guiren deliberately forgot their existence, that is, she was deliberately humiliated.
Just listening to the way a few people chatted, Song Yao also understood the situation of Wan Guiren, but she was not afraid of her.
Giving Zhuxing a look, Song Yao rubbed her knees and got up, and without waiting for the palace people next to her to scold, she saw Zhuxing open the gift box.
A set of heads inlaid with gems instantly attracted the attention of the noble mother and daughter.
However, after opening the mezzanine by the stars, Wan Guiren stood up excitedly.
The shiny silver ingots were lined up in a row, and there were ten ingots in all, which was a thousand taels of silver.
The Zhang family has only Zhang's father hanging an idle position, and it is difficult to feed a large family with the little money he receives, not to mention providing financial support for the Wan nobles, but it is necessary for the Wan nobles to shrink their clothes and diet to fill them.
"This is ......" Wan Guiren's eyes were shining, and he looked at the brocade box with no grace.
According to the regulations of the palace, the annual salary of the nobles is only one hundred taels of silver, if it were not for the annual distribution of silk and satin, and the food and drink were also sent by the imperial kitchen according to the specifications, it would really not be able to live.
Fortunately, the princess is still favored, and there are some rewards in addition to the New Year's salary, but there is a little left, but it is only a thousand taels.
Now that Song Yao has made a move, it is the number of private rooms that their mother and daughter have saved for more than ten years, so how can Wan Guiren sit still?
To put it bluntly, money is omnipotent everywhere, especially in the palace.
"The first time I came to see the noble lady and the princess, I didn't know what the noble lady and the princess liked, so I prepared these small gifts, and I hope the noble lady will not dislike it." Song Yao said gently.
As soon as Wan Guiren thought about it, he understood what Song Yao meant, this was to win over the relationship.
Wan Guiren didn't know Song Yao's current identity, but he also knew that Song Yao's deceased mother left a lot of dowry, but they were all Song Yao's.
But in the blink of an eye, Wan Guiren stopped his original thoughts.
Instead of betting on whether Mrs. Song can get benefits, it is better to have real gold and silver.
"This is Yu Yao, right? Why are you still kneeling there? Wan Guiren opened his mouth enthusiastically, and personally got up to help, "What a lovely person, no wonder my cousin wants to take you into the palace, but I like it when I see it." ”
